Warriors of Legend: The Path of Betrayal

Chapter Four Powerless and Alone

"Brian!!" Matthew yelled as he charged into battle.

"What took you so long?"

"What?"

"I was here for over a thousand ye... Never mind... You're here now."

"I thought it was you who did all this destruction."

"What?!? No!!" I yelled, "Talk later. Help me with Frosty."

Zach coughed,"those aren't snowmen... They are Ice Magrons."

"So?" I demanded.

"Nothing"
"Good. Whatever these things are, we need to destroy them."

"I'll get the soldiers of Ice Peaks rallied for this battle."

"Okay"Wait, What?" Matthew asked as he caught up to me,"What do you mean the soldiers of Ice Peaks?"

"I'll tell you later.""Okay."As we charged into battle, Matthew made swords of water which immediately turned to ice. He used the blades to slice through the center of their army.

Suddenly, a Magron grabbed me from behind and threw me against the mountain with such force that the breath was knocked out of me. The Magron picked up a jagged chunk of ice and swung it towards me. When I raised my hand to block it, the pain was too much and I was forced to wait for the end. As I fell over I saw fuzzy glimpses of Matthew and Zach fighting until everything went black.

With my eyes closed I heard people shouting random words about powers and five days. When I opened my eyes, all I could see were clouds and bright lights. Then I heard it. Matthew's voice. It was in my head saying to stay still and calm down.

"What do you mean?" I thought back.

"You were unconscious for five days and your powers are at a minimum." He replied three minutes later.

"Where are we? Why is it so cold? Where are you?" I thought my panic levels rising as I realized I didn't know how I got here.

"You're in a hospital on Zach's mountain and I'm right next to you. Can't you remember anything?"

"I remember us planning to make our camp... and that's about it"

"Brian, that was four months ago."

"What?!?"

As I rose, I collapsed onto the bed. So when I got up again, I tried to fly myself out of the bed. Nothing happened.

"Um, Brian?"

"Go away"

"Why?"

"Just go"

"Fine"

I could tell that he didn't leave, but I ignored him and tried to make a lightning bolt. Still nothing. None of my powers except for telepathy were working.

"Alicia... Can you hear me" I said aloud.

"Brian, none of your powers are working" he said.

"No!" I screamed as I ran out the door. I made from the third floor to the second floor before I felt something embed itself in my neck. As the fog lowered once more, I got rammed in the back by someone.

"Brian, you have to listen to me. When you wake up, stay calm and wait for me. Then do whatever I tell you too. Okay?"

"Matthew... How could y..." I mumbled as I fought to stay awake. Then the world went black as my best friend pinned me down to the floor. My worst nightmare come true.

When I woke up again, the bed was blue and the blanket was green. I felt strangely powerful.

"Where am I?" I asked when I woke up.

"You are in a containment room that was made for the inhuman experiments." Said a computerized voice.

Then, four muscular men in prison outfits entered the light. All of them were wearing a collar.

When I started to run away, my collar tingled with electricity. Then I realized, the collars gave electric blasts to whoever tried to escape. The irony. Putting on an electric collar on someone who used lightning as his life energy. Then, something hit the back of my head. When I turned around, I saw a man that looked like he was hit by a Taser.

"Attack" he cried.

As the men charged me, blasted them back with electric bolts. They all went flying away as the electric bolts hit them. Each and every one of them were unconscious and lying motionless on the ground. Then the computerized voice spoke once more saying that I had to remain motionless unless I wanted to die.

"Bring it on!!" I shouted.

"Very well." it replied.

Then, the door opened and I ran through. As I passed through, I hit something hard and fell back. I could see glowing lights in the entire corridor. Then the lights turned on and I was blinded. When my sight returned, I could see multiple robots in the room.

"Ahhhhh" I screamed as I charged. I managed to take down about three of the robots until one of the robots charged at me and punched me in the stomach. The robot kept running with me on its fist even through multiple walls. When I fell to the ground, a boy in a black hood dropped from the ceiling.

"Need help?" He asked.

"Yes, where am I?" I replied, thanking the spirits of each and every member Original Heroes of Legend, "Did you bring your team?

"Of course. Anything for my youngest brother."

"You know how much I hate being the youngest."

The three more people in hoods dropped from the ceiling.

"Would you stop arguing." the one in the gray hood said.

"Nice to see you too Christine. Who are these two?" I said gesturing to the boy in the green and the girl in the blue.

"That is Lance and that is Lauren. What happened to your team?"

"I honestly don't know. I lost my memory, according to Matthew." I said as Matthew and Zach emerged from the other hallways.

"Hey good to see you Shadow" Matthew called.

"What happened?!? You were supposed to be there when I woke up!?!" I screamed.

"I know and here I am."

That confused me.

"Hey Matthew" my brother said.

"I called in the rest of the team with every hero they found so far."

"Thank God." I said.

"Anyways, Brian, this isn't a plain jail. It's one of the most guarded Magron prisons. They store people like us here. This is where James died. You could have died too."

Then with a flash of light, Andrew and Alicia dropped in, followed by Emily, Patrick, and Elvin.

"Wow" Shadow said," I didn't know you had this many people on your team."

"He's not the only one" Luke said closely followed by Thorn and Will," Good to see you brother."

Then, there was a crash and scream nearby the North Entrance.

"Quick" Alicia shouted," I left Ben and Mikey guard over there.

When we reached the North Entrance, we found Ben and Mikey unconscious and the room was turned to rubble.

"What happened?" I cried.

"Forget it. Form a defensive circle formation around them.The Magrons are coming." Matthew and Shadow ordered.

We circled around Mikey and Ben with our powers at ready and we waited. Three minutes later, the doors were blown off their hinges and the Magrons started pouring in.
